Worth noting if you're driving.

When we go to St Andrew's we never park on the street, especially night games. I'm parked in the Morrisons right by the ground for £3.

You are mad to street park around St Andrews at night, just how it is round there.

It's at times like this I'm thankful I can't afford a nice car!

Weren't their fans pretty receptive to us when we played there?
I went to St Andrews a few times when we played 'home' games there. I thought that Blues fans and stadium workers were pleasant and welcoming to Sky Blues supporters.

If we beat Blues that makes this a very good 7 days in my eyes, 6 points from Leeds/Soton away/Blues away i would have snapped your hands off.

Got to keep it tight at back, if we dont get a clean sheet, questions got to be asked of GK and defence, they've scored 3 goals in last 8 games (we've scored 18!).

Going into a weeks break so leave it all out there!

Service was much better than the youth they got working at the CBS

In theory this should be a fantastic Saturday for me; Birmingham game in the afternoon followed by a concert at the Institute in the evening.

However, I’ve got the marathon next weekend so I shouldn’t really be having a heavy day tomorrow, meaning my plan is to be as sensible as I can. And of course Cov could ruin it with another terrible performance and result.

Reality is, I’ll enjoy the away day too much, we’ll win and I’ll then continue the celebrations onto the concert.

Their local businesses were welcoming, but any of our our fans walking back to New Street after the FA Cup ties at their place might have an alternative view on how receptive their fans were.
Generally it was fine but it was particularly moody after that first game, I'm guessing because they'd had to sit in the away end of their own ground. A lot of territory marking going on.

We can't be out fought in this game, as Blues will clearly be well up for it, and will start with intensity and fight you would think
2-1 to The Sky Blues, but it won't be pretty.

Start with the strongest team, sub as needed. If you completely rest people it'll be 12 days from the last game to the semi-final. Play MvE further forward, start O'Hare again to try and play him into form, give Wright 60 mins max.

Hopefully we're 2 or 3 up by 60 mins and can ring the changes.

Really feel like we should start Torp. Get some decent minutes into his legs, and chance to rest someone.

Don't dislike Birmingham but it would be hilarious to see them relegated. Think they'll beat us tomorrow though. They'll be up for it.
